Little Change to Report in the General Con-
ditions of Trade.
INDIANAPOLIS June 81.
There is but little change report in the con-
ditions of general trade at home throughout
the country. The unsettled condition of the

wheat speculation. The inaa ton of the price

to $50, 900, 900 were thus locked up, a sum which
seriously affected the financial resources of the
country. The collapse of the past week has hap
